Riddle

Our journey began back in two thousand and one,Where men of all ages uncovered new fun.With the time of an era reaching a new dawn,We ready our blades, our minds, our pawn.Risen and fallen have many a lord,With honour and courage tipped on their sword.The soldiers amassing for the battle commence,Our journey continues at little expense.Yet have patience, I plead, as I ready the plan,For all will be revealed, just wait as you can.Therefore, trust me, good men, if you all hold your faith,The journey will continue- the twelfth of the eighth.
